STUDYING IN THE USA

Are you preparing to study in the USA? Once you’ve been admitted to a university or college, the next step is to apply for an F1 visa (or M visa for vocational training).

Let's explore the details of the student visa for studying in the United States:

F1 visa holders can obtain their visa up to 365 days before their course starts but can only enter the US up to 30 days before the program begins. For entry earlier than 30 days, a visitor visa is required.

A non-refundable application fee of $185 must be paid before the visa interview.

Bring your passport, Form DS-160, application fee receipt, photo, and Form I-20 to the visa interview.

Provide evidence of funds covering tuition fees and living expenses for one year, which can be demonstrated through bank statements, loan acceptance, sponsorship letters, or scholarships.

You may need to present academic documents such as transcripts, degrees, and standardized test scores during the visa interview.
